Sinopec Anqing Refinery — China
Refinery in China. Approximate location 30.5286, 117.01962.
RefineryChinaCO₂ not individually reported
Sinopec Anqing Refinery is a refinery in China. Refineries heat, fractionate and chemically transform crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through energy-intensive distillation and cracking — extremely demanding on steam generation and heat recovery. It is operated by China Petrochemical Corp. No facility-measured CO₂ figure is available in the open dataset used here.

In context: how this facility compares
Subsector: oil-and-gas-refining. As refinery, it requires high process heat (typically 200–600°C) for its core industrial operations, supplied by boilers, furnaces or direct combustion. Refineries heat, fractionate and chemically transform crude oil into fuels and petrochemical feedstocks through energy-intensive distillation and cracking — extremely demanding on steam generation and heat recovery.

Carbon emissions
No facility-measured CO₂ is published for Sinopec Anqing Refinery; Climate TRACE provides only a refinery sector-level estimate, so a precise per-site figure, ranking or carbon cost would be misleading and is not shown.

Local climate
Sinopec Anqing Refinery sits in a humid subtropical climate zone (Köppen Cfa), at 30.5°N in the northern hemisphere.
Köppen zone: Köppen-Geiger world climate classification (Kottek et al. 2006, 0.5° grid).
Site climate & environmental severity
This site sits in a moderately corrosive environment (estimated ISO 9223 class C3 — Medium), with humidity / wetness the leading environmental stress.
In this site’s local climate, a bare 150 °C surface sheds about 1333 W/m² to ambient — roughly 1.02× the loss at a 20 °C reference. Reference-surface calculation at a 150 °C surface from WorldClim climate normals (ASTM C680 / ISO 12241) — an indicative per-climate comparison, not a measurement of this site’s specific equipment. Open method dataset: DOI 10.5281/zenodo.20787408 (CC BY 4.0).
Indicative estimate via the ISO 9223:2012 informative method (atmospheric corrosivity from temperature, time-of-wetness and airborne salinity), using WorldClim climate normals, the Köppen-Geiger class and coast distance. Indicative, not a measured corrosion rate.
